      Hi folks,

      Noob here and you will have to forgive any transgressions here. I have started using pfsense with Squid and squidguard. I am able to successfully block ad sites but am unable to block any ads on youtube. I tried searching on this form and google to no avail.

      Any insights are most appreciated.

      Regards,
      Faisal

        Came across this when I switched from IPcop to Pfsense. In ipcop I used to use privoxy to block all ads globally. I never did find a howto on doing this so I created one. If it helps you or others hear is a link

        Note privoxy is not an official Pfsense package so you may not get support on hear if you run into problems
